TinDrumRenée Gailhoustet's apartment blocks with cascading terraces that seemed to have surrendered to nature
'Gailhoustet might be described as an “eco-brutalist”, but her work across the decades, after she graduated in architecture from Paris’s École des Beaux-Arts in 1961, cannot be easily pigeonholed. She specialised in social housing and urban planning in the suburbs beyond the périphérique – the less privileged, less photogenic Paris, where few tourists venture. Often combined with communal facilities such as shops and cafes, her housing megastructures were formally and spatially complex, like modern mini-cities'

Nathalie Van RaemdonckWent to #diegem cyclocross with my partner tonight, as a cycling illiterate I was more interested in the #socialarchitecture of a 20k visitors race in the middle of this tiny village.
My favourite was this clever design choice to avoid people standing still on the bridge across the highway and train, a dangerous choke point. You would need a lot of stewards for such crowd control, but if you hide the race from view, the space becomes a dead zone!

Hi I’m Ana, a Portuguese London based architect transitioning to a more nomad life with @Hamishcampbell
As a female architect among a mostly industry dominated by men, you can expect to see gender equality posts on my feed.
You can expect as well to see posts highlighting the social role of the architect, so much forgotten in the big city
